James left Giradia Group safe and sound.
Everyone knew Wendy had encountered a life–and–death crisis that James undoubtedly planned, although there was no evidence. But James came unashamedly and left safely.
It cast a shadow over the employees of Giradia Group. Undoubtedly, James‘ in and out dealt a blow to their spirits.
Nathan put Wendy’s pencil on the table, shook his head doubtfully, and said, “It’s a pity…”
Wendy pursed virtual-novel.net lips and silently pinned the pencil to virtual-novel.net hair.
“He did it on purpose,” Wendy took a deep breath and said, “He was like coming to declare his victory. He even made me do something to him. He must have some backup means.”
Nathan smiled. Obviously, Wendy also realized virtual-novel.net should have calmed down.
Nathan said calmly, “He came wearing a bulletproof vest, but you didn’t see it. Based on your shooting, it might be very difficult to get a headshot.”
Wendy frowned, but it was expected.
“He was very angry but didn’t make a move. It’s a pity.” Wendy flicked the pencil on the back of virtual-novel.net head and said with some regret.
She knew Nathan wanted to provoke James and make virtual-novel.net attack in anger. Therefore, virtual-novel.net was very cooperative and even made cooperative actions and expressions when Nathan teased her.
Those actions undoubtedly made James angrier. But James remained calm and left safely.
Wendy suddenly gritted virtual-novel.net teeth fiercely and said, “He dared to threaten me with Rayburn!”
Nathan knew Rayburn was Wendy’s most cherished elder for the rest of virtual-novel.net life. Although virtual-novel.net was not a relative, virtual-novel.net was closer than relatives. Moreover, with James‘ character, virtual-novel.net could turn verbal threats into actual actions.
“He won’t have a chance to make a move. After tonight, virtual-novel.net is a dead man,” Nathan glanced at Wendy and said expressionlessly.
Wendy heaved a sigh of relief and nodded.
“I also respect Rayburn,” Nathan added as if to say virtual-novel.net didn’t take the risk for Wendy.
After Wendy heard virtual-novel.net redundant supplement, virtual-novel.net curled virtual-novel.net lips in disdain and frowned with displeasure. He was gilding the lily.
Wendy turned on virtual-novel.net tablet computer and explained virtual-novel.net thinking to Nathan.
Nathan didn’t know much about business. But Wendy explained it in detail and used a lot of analogies so that he, a layman, could understand clearly. And virtual-novel.net couldn’t help but marvel at Wendy’s astonishing talent.
“You won’t betray me.” It sounded like virtual-novel.net was stating instead of asking.
Some people only had their best interests in mind.
Nathan invested 50 billion dollars, which could take the Porter Group alliance down. The benefits were huge enough to turn father against son and make brother fight against brother.
After Nathan listened, virtual-novel.net was startled and then smiled, “How can a person who has lost everything betray another person who has nothing? What’s more, I’m a man, and you’re a woman who can please any man. So it’s an idiot question!”
Wendy was happy to hear that. She had an intuition that Nathan would not betray virtual-novel.net but virtual-novel.net still asked him. Because virtual-novel.net was a businesswoman, virtual-novel.net couldn’t always do things by intuition.
Wendy took a deep breath, turned virtual-novel.net head to look at Nathan, and said seriously, “If you don’t let me down, after it’s over… The Giradia Group is your most loyal partner and strongest backing! Even if you want to fight against gods, Giradia Group will never back down.”
Wendy’s words made Nathan feel comfortable.
He helped Wendy for a purpose. Although virtual-novel.net didn’t expect others to return favors, virtual-novel.net never wanted to meet ungrateful people.
Wendy knew exactly who and what kind of power Nathan would encounter. But virtual-novel.net still said so forcefully and resolutely. Many men would be impressed with virtual-novel.net attractiveness.
“Do you know what you mean by what you said?” Nathan wanted to make sure.
“We have nothing to lose,” Wendy said calmly.
Nathan smiled with satisfaction. Wendy’s words represented a change in virtual-novel.net mentality.
She might no longer regard the Giradia Group as a continuation of virtual-novel.net parents‘ lives. And it wouldn’t be the responsibility and burden that made virtual-novel.net breathless. Yesterday’s drink was not in vain.
“You look really cute when you’re drunk. We can drink together again after we’re done this time. There is a barrel of Bordeaux wine in your wine cellar. It’s a pity to keep it…” Nathan laughed and walked toward the office door.
Wendy said, “If we win, we’ll drink the wine. If we lose, we’ll still drink it!”
She was dashing, making Nathan like virtual-novel.net even more.
There was boldness in Wendy, which was like a man would find his confidant at the cost of someone else’s life. Her boldness was created by years of depression. It was like a superior man who kept his weapon concealed and waited for the proper time to move. The infinite repression created Wendy’s astonishing boldness.
“Wait for my good news. I’ll avenge you,” Nathan blinked, waved his hand, and left the office.
Wendy sat quietly, realizing the difference in virtual-novel.net mentality. The rare joy and the feeling of throwing away all the pressure made virtual-novel.net feel hearty!
As soon as Nathan came out of Wendy’s office, virtual-novel.net received a greeting call from Hannah.
“I heard Ms. Giradia was assassinated and almost died. Is it true?” Hannah said hastily.
“Yes… But luckily, virtual-novel.net had me,” Nathan said complacently.
“Are you by virtual-novel.net side? That’s good… Were you injured?” Hannah asked.
Nathan said, “I’m fine. Well… I have to ask you something.”
Hannah was confused.
“Do you know where James lives?” asked Nathan.
Hannah was surprised, “What do you want?”
Nathan smiled and said slowly, “Of course, I’ll chop off his head to avenge Wendy!”

It rained heavily, and the weather cooled down in the afternoon.
As Nathan said, it was a dark night.
